Frequently Asked Questions

When would be the best time to start my rental search?

Typically the best time to start searching is 60-90 days prior to your preferred move-in date. The reason for this is that residents give a 60 day notice to move out. Because of this, the majority of new availabilities occur near the end of the month. Sometimes people have to move unexpectedly due to job changes or other unexpected events, so we suggest you check with us at any time in case something unexpected is available sooner.

Are there a variety of floor plans to choose from?

Yes, we offer thirteen (13) floor plans ranging from efficiencies to three bedrooms, so we have something to suit everyone's needs. Please visit our Floor Plans page to view the different styles we offer and availability.

Do I need to setup an appointment?

Finding and securing the perfect apartment is easy, and an appointment is not always needed. However, we encourage you to call ahead so that one of the leasing team can set aside some time to understand your needs, take you on a tour of the community and show you all the great amenities we offer. Just visit the community during regular office hours (click here to find out when we are open) and one of our friendly leasing team will be happy to assist you.

What should I bring when I visit the community?

It's a good idea for you to bring a picture ID (i.e. driver's license or passport) since this will be needed for your tour. Oh, and don't forget your checkbook as you will need this when you find your ideal apartment home and want to secure it.

Are there move-in specials available?

From time to time we do offer great-value move-in specials. Please visit the Floor Plans page for current pricing and availability, or contact the leasing staff to learn about any special promotions we have.

What lease terms are available?

From time to time we offer alternative lease terms to suit your needs other than the standard seven or twelve month's agreement. Please inquire about current lease term offerings.

How much do I need to earn to rent an apartment home at Winter Park Village?

The application fee is non-refundable as it covers the cost of administration to obtain credit and background reports. A reservation fee is also applicable and, in some circumstances, this is refundable. Application fees are described on the floor plans and pricing tab on the website.

Do you charge a security deposit and how much will it be?

Security deposits are required and are determined by apartment size and credit history. For example, a one bedroom deposit starts at $295. Please refer to our application acceptance criteria for more details. (click here.)

How do I sign up for Renter's Insurance?

For your peace of mind, Winter Park Village strongly recommends that all residents secure private rental insurance to cover personal liability and property and/or other loss or damage in the event of fire or other hazard. These items are not protected from loss by the Winter Park Village Apartments insurance policy. Just contact your current vehicle insurance company for coverage, or take a look at some of the insurance providers who offer rental insurance products. Please note that coverage is optional, the cost is minimal and it offers you and your belongings protection from loss or damage. http://www.rentersinsurance.net

What appliances are included in my apartment?

The majority of apartments come equipped with a stove, refrigerator, disposal, and dishwasher. However, some of the smaller studio-style apartments may not have a dishwasher. We offer ten (10) laundry rooms conveniently located around the community, so there is usually one close by for you to use.

What shopping, restaurants, schools, parks, employment and attractions are close to my Winter Park Village Community?

Winter Park Village is located in one of metro Orlando's most desirable locations. We are near centers of employment, shopping, transportation, and arts and entertainment and are less than five minutes from the beautiful, European style town of Winter Park.
